Which of the following is a postzygotic isolating barrier?
Jet001 [13]

Answer: The following is a <u>postzygotic isolating barrier </u>:

  • The hybrid offspring of two species of crocodiles can produce normal gametes but cannot obtain a mate.  

Explanation:

<em><u>Reproductive isolation </u></em>occurs when <em>barriers prevent</em> two populations from interbreeding , <u>keeping their gene pools separate.</u>

We can find the Prezygotic isolation that occurs<u> before fertilization </u>can happen.

And the Postzygotic insolation barriers are the reproductive insulation processes that<u> act after the mating</u>. They are all that concern the viability of the individuals produced.

Prezygotic isolation barriers can be temporal, behavioural, geographic , ecological or mechanical; whereas postzygotic isolation barriers include the inviability, infertility or breakdown of hybrid organisms
